The ability to do this is certainly desirable, but it would have to be provided by FriendFeed. I'm pretty sure it is not a current capability.
- Phillip Stewart
Your blog software could use the FriendFeed API to query ff, looking for when the new post shows up, and then simply link to the ff page for that item. Maybe you could pull in the comments also through the API, but I don't think there would be a way to post new comments directly from your blog. I'm not familiar with the API though.
- Phillip Stewart
The API definitely allows for this. Go look at RWW or any wordpress blog with the FriendFeed comments plugin. Still waiting on Disqus or ID or someone to actually unify this setup. RWW seems to have the best example of what I would like to see.

Hrm, yea, I've seen a few plugins that enable this, but nothing w/disqus like cut-n-paste javascript. My blog is currently on squarespace (no 3rd party plugins) so I need something via js.
- Kevin Rose
What about http://www.backtype.com/ ? - you can "claim" all your comments by setting up the specific URL's where you comment - doubt it to work with others' comments on your blog, though. You probably might have to wait until intensedebate or disqus will either support squarespace or offer a plugin-less solution.

That would be cool. Strange I've never heard that idea before.

I have the new MacBook and mine seems to be working fine. The only issue I am coming across is picking up good wireless signals and staying connected. Are you having this issue?
- Luke
No problems at all. I use the new trackpad the exact same way i used the old one. Thumb at bottom to click.
- Andru Edwards
I like the fact it just doesn't judge things on if they are "green". That seems to be the only focus too many times. My main concern for things would be towards my health. Such as things that contain HFCS. Would be nice for them to come out with an iPhone app you can use at the grocery store to give you an alternate recommendation if something you enter has a low score in any or your most important area.
- Dean Clark
Great link Kevin! Now goodguide needs to integrate with our wireless devices so we can scan bar codes and get ratings as we shop.

This looks really interesting. Can't wait until Tuesday. :)

I'd be more impressed if Apple had spent some time making iTunes not run like a dog on Windows. Grr.

Great! But what if you want to export only selected bookmarks? For example, you want to use some bookmarks for one CSE, some â for another, and some you don't want to add to search at all. I haven't found how to work with selections of bookmarks at Delicious. Though, you can make this via Diigo. This service has great Send to Blog feature (under More Actions... menu), which allows us...

You hit the nail on the head. Alcohol will completely derail you from a workout because of lack of energy. I always make myself 'earn' a night of boozing by working out first. It does mess with your recovery and will require massive amounts of water...but it's better than killing a day you had planned for exercise. You should seriously try Bikram Yoga for a month 2 days a week. Results will blow you away.

Kevin... did you cut out coffee? Were you a coffee drinker before?
- Veronica
Wow! That is pretty quick to lose 10 lbs. Have you ever tried wheatgrass shots? I just took one recently and it was energizing. I'll ping you the URL. Cheers!
- Frank Gruber
Me too. While exercising everyday on the Wii Fit!
- RaAusar Powers
I already don't drink. I've cut out a lot of carbs. Already take the multivitamins. Not sure where I will find time for that kind of exercise, though.
- ComicList
Wheatgrass juice is great but tastes awful on its own. I grew some years ago, but my manual wheatgrass juicer is currently gathering dust somewhere... Maybe I'll get back into it someday.

Kevin, Leo Laporte is looking for you something about his Pounce account having too many followers thus not being able to get in

Veronica: umm coffee is ok, I have a cup a couple times a month. Just don't add sugar.
- Kevin Rose
I've been want to switch from coffee to green tea for a long time - you just gave me a reason. Great post Kevin.
- Orli Yakuel
yeah, sounds like great, sound advice, but way time intensive I hate to say.
- Steve Isaacs
Yeah I'm also doing the 100 pushups, no mid-week drinking & cardio. Raesons? Energy level helps, and just general well-being. yoga in the morning!
- anna sauce
I think it's unusable at that point, considering the API has limits on how far back you can go in the timeline.
- Kevykev
Maybe they should just add a warning when a spammer who follows Xthousands of people starts to follow you. That would be more gentle than capping the followers.

how would you know it works if they are always on when you get near. I think Bill gates has something similar going on at his place, read it somewhere.

I like the idea sharing idea but, not so sure Apple could come up with a cost effective way of pulling off your idea. I read something the other day that if I can find I will post a link but it was basically the same idea using hardware already on the market available at electrical supply stores. Every electrical outlet and switch in your home could be retro-fitted with devices that can be radio controlled remotely or from one switch in your home at the door. Depending on the size of your home it would..
- Chris Conway
cost any where from $200- for 1500sq ft to $600 for a 3000 sq ft. This would also cover divices like lambs etc, stuff that is not computer oriented. I know every one loves there new iphones but do we need it to wipe our ass to.

Hey pcnerd37 - sign on up for Seesmic and come play!

I use X10 at home through a Perl program on CentOS (RedHat) called Misterhouse that I can control through my iPod's web interface. If you go on their mailing list you can see discussions about Bluetooth proximity sensing. MH is also available on Windows.
- Ernie Oporto
First time ive used seesmic. Loic..if you are out there..what id love would be a download all button where I could just get one long video stiched together of the entire conversation.
- Matt Brooke-Smith
Hoping to do more of these. Thanks all for posting your video replies.
- Kevin Rose
Great idea. My wife says this already exists but she leaves all the lights on all the time so go figure.
- Mark Mitchell
The only issue is when you lose signal power wise or signal wise. It either has to have a 10 min. delay or a way to tell the device you are home when your phone cannot.
- geekazine
Cool idea! One feature of this app is that if someone sneaks out of your apartment with your iPhone, you'll be notified by your appliances switching off!
- Todd Logan
First of all, GREAT IDEA! I love it! - Problem... This may be great for single peeps! If you have a family at home, and they are watching TV or whatever other item may be hooked to this device, and you decide to run to the store, then the house suddenly shuts down! Not good! There should be some sort of override capability! 5 Minute Countdown chime? - Something to ponder!
- Michael Johnson
There could always be sensors within rooms to detect animals, children, etc. That could solve part of the problem. Then you could also have "family" accounts where you could attach various iPhones and devices.
- Matthew Horton
I have an idea, more The Broken shirts at J!NX!!
- Adam Maldonado
Look out Kevin! The Patent Trolls are going to subscribe to this feed to leach off our thoughts to steal great ideas! Open forums are probably a bad idea for this! Although, I still love the concept! - I wish I had people in my area with the same drive for creation and entrepreneurship like you and I! It seems I'm among old farts and lazy bums! (In Florida)

Get over it people, everyone knows he didn't shave his head. Stop calling him out already.
- Dennis Jackson
Dennis - when you make a big deal, and "call people out" over something - then do what you say you're going to do... It's a freakin' trim (not even a hair cut). No where near a shave - It's a lame stunt, and I think that you might be right - freakin bury it all - till they get it right.
- Brad Parler
I understand Brad. At least the money is still going to charity though.
- Dennis Jackson
I miss your hair, too, Kevin. I like you better with longer hair. I did a lot of "ooo no" while watching you live that night. BUT... BUT...you did it for a good reason. So, good job.
